A study of human anatomy and physiology for students preparing for an allied health profession. Integration of structure and function in the light of homeostasis is emphasized. A systems approach is utilized, with the focus on normal physiology and an introduction to pathology. Systems addressed in the first semester include skeletal, muscle, nervous and endocrine.
A study of the structure of the human body using a variety of tools including tissue slides, human skeletons, models, and the optional dissection of various organs of sheep, pig, or cow. Integration is accomplished via a systems approach with physiology using computer simulation.
A study of human anatomy and physiology for students preparing for an allied health profession. Integration of structure and function in the light of homeostasis is emphasized. A systems approach is utilized, with a focus on normal physiology and an introduction to pathology. Topics covered include cardiovascular, respiratory, digestive, urinary, immune, and reproductive systems.
Laboratory study of the structure of the human anatomy and physiology using a variety of tools including tissue slides, human skeletons, models, and the optional dissection. Systems addressed include cardiovascular, respiratory, digestive, urinary, and reproductive. Integration is accomplished via a systems approach with physiology using computer simulation.
Atomic theory, molecular structure, stoichiometry, thermochemistry, gases, states of matter, solutions, and applications to daily life, industry, and life processes. Required for science majors. *SC/DC
Selected chemistry experiments. *SC/DC
This course will introduce students to the field of exercise science including the aspects of human performance, clinical exercise physiology, strength training and conditioning. The course will also provide the student the opportunity to explore a diversity of careers and graduate programs based in the Exercise Science field.
Students will mature in responsibilities of a first responder, environment evaluation, proper application techniques, and hierarchy of practitioners. Theory and physical application of First Aid, CPR, and AED will be covered in this course.
Students will study the science of human movement with emphasis on the structure and functioning of the movement mechanism, mechanical principles underlying human motion, and an analysis of basic motor skills.
Students will explore human movement capabilities with an emphasis on the mechanics of movement, efficiency of movement, and task-specific motor skills.
The course will introduce students to the foundational principles of exercise physiology with an emphasis on nutrition, metabolism, energetics, and body composition.
Designed to accompany Exercise Science I, these laboratory exercises of will be explored the foundational principles of exercise science in more detail through hands-on laboratory exercises. Emphasis will be on nutrition, metabolism, energetics, and body composition.
Students will gain an understanding of system physiology and the effects of physical activity on the human body by building on EXS 205 Exercise Physiology I. Emphasis will be placed on circulatory, immunological, musculoskeletal, neural, neuroendocrine, pulmonary, and respiratory system?'s responses during a rested state and following bout(s) of physical activity to human performance of varying types and intensities. Prerequisite: EXS 205, EXS 205L
Students will further assess the effects of physical activity on the human body by building on skills gained in EXS 205L Exercise Physiology I Laboratory. Emphasis will be placed on evaluation of circulatory, musculoskeletal, neural, pulmonary, and respiratory system?'s responses during the rested state and following bout(s) of physical activity. Prerequisite: EXS 205, EXS 205L Corequisite: EXS 206
The course will introduce students to the standards for exercise testing and prescription. An emphasis will be placed on both preventive exercise programs for apparently healthy individuals and rehabilitative programs for cardio-respiratory diseased persons. Prerequisite: EXS 205, EX 205L
This course will prepare students to perform exercise testing to identify dysfunction or deficit and prescribe corrective exercise. An emphasis will be placed on both apparently healthy individuals and those with documented motor disorder. Prerequisite: EXS 205, EX 205L Exercise Physiology I and Lab
This course will introduce students to populations with a variety of chronic conditions which may affect their capacity for exercise. Students will learn how to safely assess these populations, as well as how to consider adapting exercise to meet the exercise capabilities of each population. Prerequisite: EXS 206/L
A study of the scientific inquiry with focus for the appreciation of the importance and need for research in exercise science. Emphasis is upon the formulation of research questions, development of the methodology, data collection, data analysis, data interpretation, and report writings specific to exercise science. Orientation to methods and procedures utilized in exercise science research, emphasizing basic principles of conducting research. Prerequisite: EXS 310; MAT 212
Reviews works completed across the Exercise Science major-curriculum to identify significant moments of learning. Evidences achievement of the Exercise Science program outcomes through a culminating presentation.
A study of elementary concepts and procedures basic to inquiry in science, sociology, psychology and other areas; frequency distributions, normal distributions; measure of central tendency and dispersion; probability; samples and populations; correlation and regression; chi-square test; analysis of variance, hypothesis testing. A working knowledge of basic algebra is needed. Fulfills Ursuline Core Curriculum Math requirement. *MA/DC
EXS 150 may be taken twice for credit.
In addition, undergraduate students are also required to complete the Ursuline Core Curriculum.
